device_prep_dma_cyclic may be call in audio trigger function which is atomic context, so we make it atomic too.
No this is wrong behavior. You should not call dma prepare functions in any of the sound trigger calls. It would make sense to move this in sound prepare callback.
Then, could you please doc it somewhere? I think I'm not the only one confused.
See the soc-dmaengine.c for correct behavior! I can document only dmaengine behavior (which is already there) and not how each subsystem should use this. People is subsystems need to see how to use the dmaengine APIs sanely
